Download samsung m2070w printer driver install#
I tried to install this but ran into sudo apt install synaptic I also recommend trying steps #4 and #5 (in my earlier post), if you haven’t already tried them. On the other hand, you could try what is suggested here:
Download samsung m2070w printer driver driver#
I also recall removing the non-CUPS device (same printer was listed under Settings->Devices as two separate devices after the manufacturer driver installation) and then the Simple scan worked.
So, I hate to say this but uninstalling and reinstalling is a tactic that worked for me. But I recall that Zorin had automatically recognized the device without the manufacturer driver. It could have been that some time in-between those 3 times I installed the manufacturer provided ubuntu driver that may have helped. I removed and reinstalled Simple scan using Synaptic about 3 times before it finally behaved. Then I installed it on my wife’s desktop and it refused to recognize the attached Brother scanner. I installed it on my wife’s laptop a while back and it never gave me problems. This is assuming it shows up under Devices, as I mentioned earlier. It is quick on some machines and not so on others.
PS - You some times have to wait for Simple Scan to recognize the printer. Aravisian here advises related steps here - try his recommendations too. In my experience remove the one not listed as CUPS.
Any guidance anyone can provide is greatly appreciated. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, orĮ: Package ‘libusb-0.1-4’ has no installation candidate Package libusb-0.1-4 is not available, but is referred to by another package. I tried to install this but get the following error:
The error I get is it cannot install this because a dependancy is missing libusb-0.1-4. I have tried this but I have also run into other problems after running this: Tried reinstalling and it says it is already there. It installs but I cannot find this “new” printer when adding new printer. I have tried installing another driver downloaded from HP for the Samsung printer into: Downloads/uld_V1.00.39_01.17.tar.gz and following the instructions However, the printer functionality is limited and I have no scanning ability meaning SimpleScan does not see my printer. Zorin installed this printer automatically during installation so that was great. I am trying to install a Samsung CLX 3305FW Multifunction Printer that is on my home network. I am new to linux and just installed Zorin Core on an Acer Aspire x3950 with i3 540 3.07GHz, 4GB memory, Intel HD graphics, 1TB HD.
